Lovely quiet location, unfortunately i fear it has been muggled. Stuck around and had a play on the play equipment
Appears to have been muggled. Will check in at some point in the hopes or replacing it.
Im not a local, Im from Mackay logging a few caches and didnt have a pen so here is photo proof of me finding the cache, TFTC
Thanks!! Had fun trying to find it, can’t believe i went ages going to the park not knowing that that was there lol
# 8768 Find day 15/20 of the current souvenir season.
On a stroll our from our local lodgings for a couple of finds for the day. I was on foot and enjoyed walking past some lovely queenslander houses on the way.
There was a dectectorist busy at the playground while I was here. He ignored me as I went about the search. I think I did better than him today.
Thanks paulkelly92 for the hide.

No kids around, so we had a good play on the equipment after finding the cache. SL, TFTC 
During our recent stay in Ipswich we found this cache and signed the log.

On a very wet and soggy Saturday morning I ventured out to collect a number of caches in the Ipswich region as part of a challenge I’m working on.
Let’s see how long I last before I get too wet to enjoy the morning

Easy little find… surprised it was still around after all the rain and floods. Trinket added from the kids.
With two new caches available I made a trip to Ipswich today.
Happy to report that this one is in good condition even after being submerged by a meter or two of flood waters.
Thank you for hiding this geocache paulkelly92

Found on a 22/2/22 day out and about. Replaced with new log sheet.

Great kids playground in scenic location. Well hidden cache found quickly. Log was soggy. Added a dry page and put container in plastic bag. Placed back as found.
Found on ground assume it has been muggled… signed log and replaced where we thought it should go… will log maintenance

Nice spot to hide it! Hidden at a nice park for kids and I also explored a hollow tree that was there. There is also a fishing spot there.
Luckily, I had the area to myself today. I took a few minutes before I spotted the right spot.

This evening, with the Jeep needing a repair, I was on the train to Ipswich to pick up the car to bring it home. I used the opportunity to find a few geocaches in the area, and as it got dark, I decided to call it a day.
A nice playground. Since I was visiting this after sunset, the area was all clear from muggles, which allowed me to quietly search (and not look suspicious with a random at a kids playground). The cache ultimately didn’t take too long to find, but I actually can’t see this lasting due to possible inquisitive kids playing here? The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks paulkelly92 for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Easy find. Log was degraded. Left new paper. Sadly area was covered in rubbish and a needle close by. Reported to council.
Good easy hide. Had to revisit to avoid muggles. The log needs replacing, torn and worn. TFTC
